Marilyn Manson is in discussions with a major frangrance company to release his own scent onto the market.

Well, not his scent, you understand, which we assume is a bit like damp leather, but a nicely bottled vial of some stinky liquid or other a la Lopez, Spears et al.

The forthcoming fragrance is currently without a name (do please make your suggestions below), but should be available in early 2006. Manson claims to have been inspired by Salvador Dali and Elsa Schiaparelli. Okay...

"I'm in the final stages with one of the major companies," said the singer, which is pretty much what we said already up there. So, um, yeah. Whiffy.
